"I shudder to think what a bigger group might do." Skye said, as she took out Nenya. "Anyway, Galadriel left me with this. Do you happen to know just what in the world she expects me to do with it? Not use the bloody thing, I hope. Stupid Rings of Power are powerful, but hard to control. Odds are I'm going to create a tsunami with this thing." Skye muttered the last sentence softly.

Adeline walked grimly down a road that had been plucked of human beings. Not that she minded; Adeline saw humans as greedy, peculiar animals that were as much worth as a shimmering diamond that one enjoyed looking at. The wind tossed her hair around, making it a messy white-blonde snake that slid down her back but also stuck out in every way it pleased. Adeline allowed a nearby tree to vibrate, and all of its remaining leaves slithered onto the ground.

(We're on gigantic flying ship owned by Didact, and on course for Atlantis, which is no longer at the bottom of the ocean. Didact is talking with Skye, who showed him the ring Nenya, and asks for his opinion. Didact's ship, the Mantle's Approach, is headed to Atlantis, as the group thinks it is a safe haven from them. Quill and Murphy is nowhere to be seen, though it is safe to assume that Quill had a concussion. Carloti is just standing there, I guess)

Skye idly played with the ring in her hands, knowing that at the very least it was an Elven ring and that it would not make her obsessed about it. Thanfully, too. She did not want to know what would the One Ring be capable of if she had it. Or Didact. Or another Mutant, actually. Or Galadriel.

"I do not know and much less care." said the Didact. "I looks nothing but a band of gold to me." he shuddered. He knew it was much more than that, but chose to ignore that fact. The Didact took out his holo-pad. "Elders." He bowed his head respectfully. "Ur-Didact." one Elder growled. "Your failiure to return has cost us two bases."
"I shall continue my campaign-"
"No. You shall not. Your failure to return has been a Great Loss." one said.
"Nay!" shouted another. "T'was Heresy!"
The Didact stared. "Surely you must understand that once the Flood-"
There was a large amount of shouting.
"SILENCE!" shouted the High Elder. "There shall be order in this Council! Didact, you were right to focus your attention on the Parasite. But you shall return within the next Ether, or you can count yourself one of the Heretics."
The Didact nodded and severed the link. "Well, that was unexpected." he muttered.

(Nenya is made from mithril. Or silver, I don't rightly know and neither does the fandom)

"Wow your Elders are weird." Skye muttered as she slipped into the semi-conscious state she would use to visit Middle-Earth.

There was a downpour from the heavens, but it did not stop the Elves gathered there. They all wore black robes, and even through the rain it was clear they had been crying. Skye shut her eyes. She knew what it was. A funeral.

In front, dozens of caskets had been placed, and at least one Elf was standing next to each casket. Skye scanned the crowd for Galadiel, who she knew would mourn for Celeborn and Elrond.

Galadriel stood next to a silver casket with few embellishments, and had a tree patterned upon it. She was crying. Next to her was another Elf, who had pale white hair. Skye knew it was Celebrian. This was Celeborn's casket. Skye inclined her head in respect. She walked among the caskets, unnoticed by many. She paid her respects to the few of the dead she knew.

When the funeral had passed, Skye was still there. She was waiting for Gandalf.

(Unfortunately, I have only watched the movies and only faintly remember the book.)

"They have been surprisingly kind towards me..." the Didact muttered. He started touching few controls on the main panel. "ETA?" he asked the AI. "Seven hours at this speed." said the AI. "We can't risk going any faster... seven hours it is."

Gandalf approached Skye, and motioned for her to follow him. He led her to a large tree and a stair etched upon it's bark. Or it might have grown there, as the stairs was part of the bark of the tree. Either way, Skye cared little for the (magnificent) interior decorating of the Elves. She floated up, while Gandalf climbed the stairs.

"It is good to see you again, Skye Elf-friend." Gandalf said, as he ascended a final flight of stairs.

'How are the Elves coping with everything?' Skye asked.

"Quite well, for a race which has seldom felt such grief." Gandalf answered Skye

"Good. I should get going now. Bye."

"You can make that eight hours. Atlantis has a ton of Mutants protecting it, as well as a sea god called Kym." Skye answered back at Didact.

"I think I can make arrangements to bypass that... but then again, if it makes the feel more secure, so be it." The Didact said. "One hours makes no difference." He tapped a few more controls. A flood of symbols leaped onto the main screen. The Didact touched one of them. The symbols went away and instead was replaced by a feed of a base on Requiem. It seemed to be under attack. The Didact frowned. He shouted a string of orders in his own language. The soldiers protecting the base moved around. The new strategy worked. "I can see what they mean about losing bases..." The Didact muttered, terminating the feed.

"So, what's your rank anyway? Captain? General?" Skye asked Didact, curious. She tried to see the feed Didact was seeing, but her had terminated it before she could. Skye didn't know what Didact had said. She didn't have a connection to his people, unlike what she did have with those from Middle Earth.

Quill woke up. "Wow, That rock really did knock me out." Quill looked at Didact, "What happened and wheres Murphy?"

"Well, Quill, we're going to Atlantis, which should prove as a safe haven, considering a minor sea goddess is guarding it." Skye informed. "And in case you were wondering, Atlantis is no longer in the bottom of the ocean.

Quill shrugged down and then laid down. He then suddenly sprang to his feet "WHAT! ATLANTIS!!!" Quill grabbed his camera and went to the closest mirror. Murphy stretched and grabbed a dragon fruit. Murphy had grown a lot. (Size of a Golden Retriver.)

"Uh... why are you doing that?" Skye asked Quill, tilting her head to the side. "Anyway, we're bound for a long flight. If you meet an enraged goddess of the sea storm, wake me up. Preferably before she destroys the ship." She instructed, before sitting down in a random place and closing her eyes.

Galadriel tied her hair with a blakc ribbon, as she looked at herself in the mirror. It was the day of her wedding anniversary with Celeborn. She closed her eyes, trying to stop the tears. It had only been a few hours since she was sent back to Middle-Earth. The plague was no more. She made sure of that. She had left Nenya with Skye, in case she needed it.

Speaking of which. "Hello, Skye. How are things going?"
'I was wondering if you could sense me. We're headed to Atlantis, and will be there in about eight hours. Nine, if a particular sea goddess decides to assault us with storms.'
"And the Apex?"
'I hope I will never meet it again. I was wondering, Galadriel, if actually you gave me some of your powers of something. It's just... Nenya. Why did you leave it.?'
"You will need it, sooner than I would have liked."

Quill rolled his eyes and took a selfie of him in front of Atlantis. Murphy followed Skye to where she sat and curled on her lap.

[i]'What do you mean?'
"To know the future is to change it."
'Fine. I'll just figure it out on my own if I really have to.'
"Oh, and you are not staying?" A new voice asked from behind Skye. She turned to look at the Elf who spoke. Skye recognized the Elf immediately. 'Lady Celebrian.' Skye said.
"Skye. Still, are you not staying?"
'... I guess I could. It's just I've never been here for more than a few hours at times... I don't know if my body needs the same nourishment it needs on Earth.'
"And Skye, I have good news. The Valar, in a strange moment of divine intervention, have decided that they will be bringing our two worlds together."
'That might not end well.'
"They are still going to do it, whether or not we agree to it."

The Didact had been distracted when Skye asked the question. "It's complicated. Officially, I'm a Commander Chief Petty Officer, Commander for short. It's the highest fighting rank, but not a command rank. But between me being Special Forces, Office of Naval Intelligance and leader of Project Prometheus, I technically rank higher than the Leader of the Forerunner Army. He acknowledges that and so do the other soldiers." He paused.

"Well, Didact certainly has quite a few ranks." Galadriel mused.
'Wait... you can hear him?'
"No Skye, it's just that you have been actively broadcasting your thoughts to us." Celebrian explained."And just what in the world is Naval Intelligence? And a Forerunner?"
'Long story. So when is all this merging of the world things gonna happen? Because we might or might not be headed for a minor sea goddess of the sea storm or something like that.'
"Use Nenya. It should be able to counter her powers. Probably. I think."
'That's... not very helpful.' Skye muttered as the world once again faded to black.

"Didact, how did you get so many ranks?" Skye asked the Forerunner. "And what is Project Prometheus? And who is the leader of the Forerunner Army anyway?"

"Well, when ONI, Office of Naval Intelligance, lost a full platoon, they got me in. I worked up through the ranks in ONI. ONI, by the way, is like CIA or FBI or SWAT. But a thousand times better... and more secretive. As the name suggests, they deal in everything from running the planet to how many people so much as blink outta line. Intelligence to a new level. This is why they freak some people out. Anyone who works with ONI is called a 'Spook'.
Project Prometheus... Prometheans. The loyal, super, slightly-higher-than-human sized robots I told you about? Hugely successful.
When I became Master Chief Petty Officer, I got three Purple Hearts, one Commander Cross and a full distinction, which meant I had every major award in the Military apart from the Prisoner of War medal.
Special Forces picked me up, slapped me in a few battles and promoted me to Commander Cheif Petty Oficer in the Army while I became a Luitenant in Special Forces. This lead to me getting a few more promotions in ONI." He paused for breath. "The current leader of the Forerunner Military is 'Zukamnee, a good man. But he reports to me, along with rest of the Military. He's an old family friend."

"Alright, to be honest you lost me sometime during Purple Hearts... Whatever those are." Skye muttered. "Also, I think I may have a contingency plan for dealing with the minor goddess I told you about before."
